Very high regioselective 1,2-addition of organolithiums to α,α-unsaturated carbonyl-like compounds (ketones, aldehydes, and imines) in the presence of LiBr was achieved by carrying out reactions in the sustainable solvent 2-methyltetrahydrofuran. Excellent yields (in isolated product) of allylic alcohols and allylic amines were recovered under a simple experimental procedure at 0 °C.
